Galvin Growth Group

What Galvin Growth Group does

Galvin Growth Group (also known as G3) is a private outpatient mental health practice headquartered in Novi, Michigan, founded and led by Dr. Julie A. Galvin, PhD. The practice delivers psychotherapy (individual, couples, family, and parenting therapy) and comprehensive psychological and psychoeducational evaluations to adults, children, teens, and families across the lifespan. Core clinical services are supplemented by specialized offerings including animal-assisted therapy with a certified therapy dog (Lexie), teletherapy extending services statewide in Michigan, perinatal mental health support via a PMH-C certified clinician, executive functioning coaching, educational consulting, and college-life support. The therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based modalities (CBT, ACT, EFT, DBT, ABA, play therapy) and includes differentiated frameworks such as TTRPG-based therapy (Dragons & Discovery), certified through an APA-approved Geek Therapy program.

The practice operates a complementary Skill Builder Workshops product line featuring structured, age-segmented group programs: Focus Lab (grades 2-5), Confidence Lab (girls ages 11-14), Art of Socializing (ages 9-12), and Dragons & Discovery for teens (13-17) and young adults (18-25), priced at $240-$600 per cohort with payment plans available. Business model is direct-to-consumer, with intake via phone or website contact form, insurance accepted plus self-pay options, Good Faith Estimates per No Surprises Act, and HIPAA-compliant operations. Service delivery combines a single physical office (43155 Main Street, #2300-G, Novi, open 7 days/week) with statewide teletherapy. Marketing is content-driven (blog, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, email newsletter) and complemented by referral partnerships with schools, physicians, and community organizations.

Galvin Growth Group is privately held with no disclosed external funding, parent company, acquisition activity, or venture involvement. The team comprises 18+ clinicians including PhD psychologists, limited license psychologists, therapists with specialty certifications, a board-certified behavior analyst, and a speech-language pathologist. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; firmographics list 8 employees, indicating a mix of full-time staff and contracted or part-time clinicians within the broader roster.

Emerging players

• Brightside Health: Brightside Health is a telehealth mental health provider delivering therapy and psychiatric treatment, including medication management. It is comparable to Galvin Growth Group as a clinician-driven therapy and evaluation practice operating on a virtual-delivery model with insurance acceptance.
• Charlie Health: Charlie Health provides intensive outpatient mental health treatment for teens and young adults, including group therapy and family work. Galvin Growth Group's teen-focused workshops (Confidence Lab, Dragons & Discovery) and child/adolescent psychotherapy serve the same youth mental health segment.
• Brightline: Brightline is a pediatric and family behavioral health platform offering therapy, coaching, and psychiatry for children and teens. Galvin Growth Group's strong children-and-teens clinical track (play therapy, ABA, executive functioning, evaluations) competes for the same family-segment mental health demand.
• Lyra Health: Lyra Health is a mental health benefits platform delivering therapy, coaching, and psychiatry to employees of enterprise customers. Galvin Growth Group's school and physician partnerships represent an analogous institutional/B2B channel for delivering the same therapy services at scale.

Direct peers

• Talkspace: Talkspace is a national teletherapy platform offering individual, couples, and teen therapy via video with licensed therapists. Galvin Growth Group's teletherapy arm targets the same use cases with a similarly licensed provider network and per-session engagement model.
• Cerebral: Cerebral is a direct-to-consumer mental health platform offering therapy and medication management online nationwide. It overlaps with Galvin Growth Group's D2C intake-driven teletherapy model but adds telehealth prescribing, which sets it apart as a more integrated competitor.
• Two Chairs: Two Chairs is a D2C outpatient therapy practice that matches clients to specialized clinicians using an intake team and offers teletherapy plus in-person care. Galvin Growth Group operates the same intake-matching and multi-modality therapy model at a regional boutique scale.

Broad incumbents

• BetterHelp: BetterHelp is the largest consumer teletherapy platform, providing individual, couples, and teen therapy subscriptions online. It competes directly for Galvin Growth Group's teletherapy clients across Michigan and sets the consumer benchmark for online talk therapy access.
• LifeStance Health: LifeStance Health is a publicly-traded outpatient mental health chain operating hundreds of clinics with therapy, psychiatry, and psychological testing. Galvin Growth Group offers the same core services (psychotherapy + evaluations + psychiatric-adjacent care) at a multi-clinician group-practice scale in a single state.

Others

• Headspace Health: Headspace Health combines the Headspace and Ginger platforms for mental wellbeing, coaching, and teletherapy. Although its B2B and self-serve digital model differs from Galvin Growth Group's in-person clinical practice, it competes for the same consumer mental-health-services wallet share through a different delivery model.
